LBCC + Oregon State University
OSU New Student Orientations
If you are a current or new Degree Partnership Program (DPP) student and plan on taking classes at OSU for the first time, you will be required to attend an OSU orientation session. Throughout the summer, there will be both First Year and Transfer STARTS for students beginning at OSU in the fall. Check out OSU's New Student Programs website for more information and schedule of dates. Between terms there are also orientation sessions available if you are planning to start winter or spring terms at OSU.
At orientation you will learn about valuable resources available to you at OSU, receive academic advising, and register for OSU classes. Linn-Benton's DPP staff will also be available to assist students in registering for LBCC classes and answer questions. If you have any questions regarding OSU's orientation, please contact the New Student Programs & Family Outreach office directly at 541-737-7627.
If you are planning to take all of your courses at Linn-Benton for your first term, you are still encouraged to attend OSU's orientation. It's a good opportunity to connect with your OSU advisor and learn more about your major program. However, you are welcome to participate in LB's new student session if you prefer. As part of LB's new student session our staff will assist with math placement and registering for courses. Please email dpp@linnbenton.edu with your name and student ID number, and request to sign up for an LB new student session.
